BHUBANESWAR: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) said heavy rain used to be most likely within the northern and southern parts of the state due to a deep depression that has formed over the Bay of Bengal and that brought about sustained rainfall in most parts of West Bengal on Sunday night time and Monday.
"A depression has formed over gangetic West Bengal and the adjoining northern part of the Bay of Bengal. It has been moving west-northwestwards slowly and is likely to intensify into a deep depression during the next 24 hours," the IMD bulletin said on Monday morning.
Under its affect, rain used to be anticipated to occur in Odisha, West Bengal, Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh, the IMD added.
The director of the IMD's Bhubaneswar centre, Sarat Chandra Sahu, said, "The depression is located on land and is also moving towards land so there is no chance of it further intensifying into a cyclone. The movement of the system is also very slow and has already weakened. However, rain will continue till October 10 after which it will become sporadic across Odisha."
He added: Heavy rain will occur in one or two places within the districts of Balasore, Bhadrak, Jajpur, Keonjhar, Sundergarh, Angul, Dhenkanal and Mayurbhanj and in addition in one or two places within the districts of Sonepur, Deogarh, Boudh, Jharsuguda and Sambalpur all over the following 24 hours.
The Met place of work has also forecast strong and gusty floor winds with speeds of as much as 45 to 55 kmph along and off the state's coast. The condition of the sea off the coast of Odisha will probably be rough and fishermen had been recommended against venturing into the waters. Local cautionary sign number 3 (LC-III) used to be sent out across Paradip and Gopalpur ports.
Talcher recorded the utmost rainfall of 95 mm previously 24 hours (ending at 8.30 am on Monday), adopted by way of Titilagarh (30 mm) and Chandbali (29.4mm).
Monday dawned shiny and sunny however as the day progressed, dark clouds amassed. This used to be adopted by way of heavy rain and thunderstorms. Many other folks, particularly commuters, have been stranded around the city as most roads and low-lying areas have been waterlogged. The city recorded 18.4 mm rainfall on Monday.
